Parashara was a famous sage of great repute. His knowledge of the Vedas and scriptures was unparalleled. There was no greater scholar than him in his times. And it was only natural that his son Vyasa would follow the father’s foot steps. Over the years, young Vyasa became so proficient in scriptures and knowledge that he came to be known as Veda Vyasa. This meant Vyasa who had mastered the Vedas. As time passed Vyasa developed into an incomparable teacher and an unparalleled writer. His description and narration was so well appreciated by the disciples and people around him that he came to be known as Bhagwan Vyasa.
